Error when setting conditions

Post by Ineffable »

UPDATE: I fixed it by showing hidden files in Explorer, then selecting Properties on the file and removing the checkbox on Hidden. Strange...

I am trying to set conditions on a folder. I press OK, then get the following error:
You do not have the required permissions to view the files attached to this post.

folder.props is a file which you cannot see in Flare, but in the normal Windows Explorer only. It might
a. simply not be there or
if you work with source control:
b. checked out by sb else or
c. not checked out and read-only.

I turned on the hidden files feature in Windows Explorer and was able to see the file. I then unchecked the Hidden option in the file properties. That worked, and allowed me to change the conditional setting from within Flare.

Have no idea how it ended up that way, but I don't doubt it happened due to user error. ;)
